The attack on Nigeria was a flop. The American bombers could not spell the name of the Nigerian state they attacked. They dropped their bombs on a small village setting a big fire, but no one was hurt. Observers say the attack was meant to impress Christians in Texas.
Syria
Reports from Syria indicate the 70 bombing raids on ISIS in northern Syria did not succeed because ISIS supporters have infiltrated into government troops, and even heavy bombing only reaches into sandy hills. No serious losses from ISIS were reported.
According to Al-Jazeerah, the Syrian government is facing an uprising by Alawites who were the backbone of the deposed Assad regime. The Sharaa government is trying to be inclusive and to give civil rights even to the Alawites, while trying to stop violence against the government and avoid civil war.
Somalia
Somalia is a different story. Al-Jazeera and others report that Al-Shabab Islamic forces have captured most of central Somalia, and are advancing into Kenya and Uganda.
Germany Entering Islam
German sources have pinpointed that almost all churches have closed down, and some are being demolished. The numbers are devastating for Christians. Of these churches, three hundred are Protestant and sixty-one are Catholic. Some of these churches are being used as hotels, some for apartments, some for soccer matches, some for boxing rings, and others for libraries.
More than one million Germans have abandoned Christianity. Islam is now the most important religion in Germany.
Is The Arab Time Capsule Out of Time?
By Mahboob A. Khawaja
Authoritarianism and Tainted Foods Changed the Arab Mindset
December 6, 2025 – The US and Israel are aligned to divide, defeat and destroy the Arab states. America has just announced a 33 pages New Security Strategy to pursue and accomplish. It is a plan to belittle the European allies and make America great as a White Superpower. The Arab rulers imagining American security help breathe oxygen in a fool's paradise. The former tribal agents turned kings, princes and queens wanted palaces and prosperity to enjoy life and nothing else. Blind terror and hatred of Arabs and Islam blend the American and Israeli conquest plans for "Greater Israel", a catastrophic abnormality taking shape and form without any deterrence. Despite the so-called UN International Law and its Security Council's Chartered assigned vigilance against aggression, crimes against humanity, genocide and forcible displacement of 2.5 million civilians are daily events.
Western mythologists describe the Arab authoritarian leaders as "camel jockeys" and others as moderate and friendly. Moderate Arabs are a food for after dinner hollow laughter in Western political circles. While Arab people and leaders are entrenched in the fraudulent phenomenon of oil-run prosperity, PM Netanyahu continued to attack, occupy and destabilize neighboring Lebanon, Syria and effective control over Gaza and occupied West Bank-Palestine. Phony Arab princes and kings talk of mediation, peace and Gaza free of Israeli occupation. Deceptive assertions negate the prevalent truth on the ground. If the Arab leaders would see the mirror, they would see the enemy. When cold blooded massacres are a daily event, foods and medicines are blocked and starvation becomes a weapon to dehumanize mankind, no conscientious leaders dare to stop the Israeli insanity as if Palestinians are not normal human beings. Does inhumanity and insanity have another definition? Editor Antonio Rosa (Transcend Media: 11/10/25), exposes the reality of the on-going genocide in Gaza and other parts of Palestine: "Genocide in Pictures: Worth a Trillion Words."
The oil enriched Arab leaders lost the Islamic history of moral obligations, compassion and intellect and wanted to buy wisdom with wealth. The Western nations fed the Arabian societies with contaminated foods for a long time to change their thinking and behaviors and make them robotic machines to enjoy sports, pleasures and palaces. The Arab masses live in discontent and despair not knowing the reality of upcoming future – crimes and genocide by Israel enlarged to cover the Arabian Peninsula. "The World Wonders! Where are the Arab Leaders",
When crimes against humanity and genocide in Gaza were in progress, Jennifer Lopaez's musical concert enticed the Royal Saudi audience in obscenity and nudity. How ignorant and indifferent would you call the UAE rulers organizing the World Climate Conference to entertain the aggressors and killers of Gaza with $2B spent on performance? Israel bulldozed Rafah Crossing and Egyptians kept watching silently. You wonder what went wrong with the Arab leaders -are they humans or dead rituals on display. Israel needs conflicts for its survival and the USAID, and Netanyahu and Trump collaborate to make it happen. Bombing of Gaza, Syria and Lebanon go unabated as if all the Arab-Muslim leaders are mindless robots.
Crimes against Humanity and Global Community
Global community witnesses the on-going American supported Israeli war on Palestine as ethnic cleansing and genocide happening without any international legal accountability. Some Arab rulers paid billions of dollars to America to acquire fake sense of defense arrangements and security. America supplies the bomb and Israel drops it on innocent people in Gaza. Those dropping bombs on earth are not normal beings, they have no microscope to read their minds – human beings acting like wild animals as if Palestinians are not equal human beings and something else.

History never witnessed such a decadent culture of Arab moral, intellectual and political behavior. When would they learn from the living history to distinguish between foes and friends? For 2.5 million people of Gaza there is nowhere to go, nowhere to find a place of safety and life protection. Every day is a killing day- bombardments of innocent civilians, places of worship, hospitals and UNRWA's school shelters. The 21st century world of morality and humanity appears to be lost forever.
Is the 21st Century Age of Consciousness Coming to an End?
Gaza and West Bank are obliterated by Israeli war over 22 months of continued bombardments of civilian infrastructures. Why would they buy weapons worth $100B from the US as none of the Arabs have leadership or armies to fight. If the leading Arab leaders had capacity and moral-intellectual foresight, they should have challenged the insanity of war and protected the innocent masses of Gaza. The Arab leaders appear morally, intellectually and politically bankrupt as a scum floating on a torrent of naive puppets and discredited leaders. The Divine injunction is clear: "God does not change the condition of people what any people may have until they change whatever they themselves have." (The Quran: 13:8)
God created you as human beings – the most intelligent creation on this planet with moral and intellectual capacity, obligations and accountability. If you defy the Laws of God, you will be held accountable like other aggressors in the past. You cannot pretend to think and behave like animals. Animals live and do not reflect on the imperatives of life whereas, we, the human beings cannot act like animals as we are supposed to be intelligent and responsible species on this Earth. At the edge of reason, the notion of evil leads to realization of evil and tyranny of war must be stopped by all means and those responsible for the genocide and crimes against humanity must be held accountable to restore the manifestation of peace, justice and security for all. Intelligent people, leaders and nations always readily accept advice: The followers of Moses – the generations of Israelite (progeny of Jacob) are reminded by God (The Quran 2: 84-85 ):
And remember, We took a Covenant from the Children of Israel (progeny of Jacob), Worship none but God; ....shed no blood amongst you, Nor displace people from homes: and Ye solemnly ratified, And to this ye can bear witness.... It was not lawful for you to banish another party, then it is only a part of the Book that ye believe in.... And on the Day of Judgment they shall be consigned to the most grievous penalty, For God is not unmindful what ye do.

Christian Martyrdom and the Blame Game
By Sis. 'Aisha Jamaat al-Muslimeen, New York City
On the Catholic Faith Network (CFN), I saw a show, Encounter (12/6/2025), hosted by Bishop John Barres of the Diocese of Rockville Centre. Monsignor Jim Vlan was also a part of this episode's panel. The show's guest was Dr. Robert Royal, Editor-in-Chief of the Catholic Thing. Recently, he authored a book, Martyrs of the New Millennium: Global Persecution of Christians in the Twenty-First Century. During the discussion, the consensus was that Islam was a growing threat to Christianity all over the world.
People with professional titles should be analyzed critically. There have been many books written by racist doctors who were held in high regard, such as Dr. Carl Jung, claiming that black/brown people had lacked intelligence and developed lustful desire as prepubescents. Don't be fooled by these professional titles. These "doctors" have written books that were filled with lies and misinformation about black and brown people, especially those who were not Christians. If these European doctors were professionals at anything, it was telling lies! It was like that then and now.
I am always skeptical of Christian accounts involving Muslims.
Dr. Royal recounted an incident involving the death of Nigerian Seminarian Michael Nnadi at the hands of radical "Moslems." According to Dr. Royal, these captors tried to force Nnadi to take his "shaddada," (sic), which he refused, and after telling his captors they were a disgrace to Islam and that they should become Catholic, he was murdered. Allegedly, Michael Nnadi's shooter expressed his admiration for Nnadi as he recounted the events leading up to Nnadi's death. Dr. Royal claimed that by the end of 2024, there were 7,000 Christian martyrs in Nigeria. He said that the numbers were at 5000 Christian martyrs a year in Nigeria up until that point.
There is a lot of Western interference, American, Belgian, French, etc., in Africa, and these descendants of European imperialists don't like it.
During the discussion, Dr. Royal criticized Pakistan's blasphemy laws and said there are two in Pakistan's Constitution that could put any Christian in jail for the slightest offense. In Pakistan, he said the blasphemy laws are used for religious repression and for social gain. He alleged there were instances where "Moslems" had falsely accused their neighbors of blasphemy because they wanted their land or cattle or simply had a grudge. He stated that in England, where there is a growing Muslim population, unjust blasphemy accusations are hurled against English Christians. He claimed that the British don't know how to assert themselves against these militant Muslims when faced with accusations of having "dissed the Qur'an."
Dr. Royal warned that attacks against Catholicism may intensify because Western Elites are soft on these attackers. He said that these elites view Catholicism as bad because of its history (i.e., the Crusades, hatred toward Gays, Galileo, etc). He called all of these nonsense reasons to be against the Church because they are marginal compared to Catholic contributions to Western civilization overall.
Christians, especially Catholics, have never held themselves accountable for their declining membership. They don't understand that identifying as Christian is not the same as being a practicing Christian. It is the same thing with Zionist Jews, who are comfortable claiming to be half-Jewish and celebrating Chrismukka with their equally secular Christian spouses for the children's sake. Of course, as knowledgeable Muslims, we are already aware of unbelieving Jews who eat pork after getting bar mitzvahed.
People Martyred by the Archdiocese
Dr. Royal wants us to focus on Catholic martyrs, but there are plenty of people the Catholic Church has martyred over the centuries!
How about sexually abusive priests and nuns protected by the Catholic Church? This has led to millions of dollars awarded to their victims in recent decades by the Catholic Archdiocese.
How about those US Indian Boarding/Canadian Indian Residential Schools? There were nearly 1000 of these schools subjecting Indigenous Americans/Canadians to heinous sexual and physical abuse under the guise of assimilating them into a corrupt culture - that's another dozen articles on that alone! Pope Francis's apology was weak and dismissive.
Abuse of maligned young people who have reached out for help. Whether it was Father Bruce Ritter, founder of Covenant House, abusing underage male prostitutes there, or the recent excavation of over 700 skeletons of infants and toddlers at the Bon Secours Mother and Baby Home in Ireland, there have been many instances where the Church subjected these victims to further abuse!
The above list is of transgressions committed within the last 100 years. Historians have already written books about the Crusades, the Spanish Inquisition, and the colonization of indigenous populations in the so-called New World.
Any decline in membership is not because of "radical Moslems" allegedly targeting and killing Christians in cold blood. Dr. Royal and others want to blame Muslims for oppressing Catholics, but the Catholic Church's wounds are self-inflicted!
An unnamed Idaho man just died 51 days after receiving a kidney transplant. His kidney came from a Michigan organ donor infected with rabies. Although the Michigan man's family listed his contact with a skunk, the hospital never tested the organs for rabies. Skunks are known rabies carriers. The hospital assumed that because rabies is so rare for humans to contract in America that it was okay to go through with harvesting the Michigan man's organs.
The real reason, I suspect, is that organ donation is a multi-billion-dollar business ($14.5 billion in 2024), and this hospital, which may be sued, couldn't care less about the injured parties.
Health officials wanted to allay people's fears by stating that this is only the 4th death from rabies via an organ transplant since 1978. The victim's family is probably not concerned about this statistic. There shouldn't be any deaths from organ transplants! Every test should be conducted before harvesting organs. "Harvesting" is the term the medical field uses for taking organs. It sounds like a business word. Healthcare is a money-maker in America. Profits are generated at the detriment of people and pets. People are being encouraged to apply for healthcare jobs. Thousands of people will rarely lose their jobs even if a hospital closes down. Usually, neighboring hospitals will absorb the workers from the closed hospital.
I had a young cousin who passed away, unfortunately, from a drug overdose. I questioned whether the drug overdose would overwhelm his organs the way the drugs overwhelmed him and ended his life.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani Strikes!
Like it or not, Zohran Mamdani is New York City's first Muslim Mayor. On New Year's Day, he was sworn in twice. The first ceremony was privately held at the old City Hall train station, which has not been used in over 30 years. New York State Attorney General presided over the ceremony. The second swearing-in ceremony was held publicly near City Hall and presided over by Senator Bernie Sanders and Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. In both instances, Mamdani was sworn in using the Qur'an. A huge block party was held after Mamdani's swearing-in ceremony.
Apparently, Mayor Mamdani knows how to party. He had a 3-day wedding celebration at his family's Ugandan estate in July 2025.
A stronger key action Mamdani made was to do away with two executive orders, previously signed by Mayor Eric Adams:
The International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's (IHRA) broad re-definition of 'Antisemitism.'
Restricting the Boycott, Divest, and Sanction (BDS) Israel Movement. Mamdani has been a BDS supporter for years, so this move came as no surprise.
New Trend Editor Dr. Kaukab Siddique notified me of this move, which I have not heard about in the press yet. But, the Israeli Minister's response was: "This isn't leadership. It's antisemitic gasoline on an open fire."
Mayor Mamdani's response to his Zionist critics was that many Jewish leaders he knows took issue with the broad definition of 'Antisemitism,' including equating criticism of Israel's actions as antisemitic. Mayor Mamdani tossed most of Former Mayor Adams' executive orders signed under questionable circumstances after he was indicted on federal corruption charges. The only two that Mamdani signed were
Mayor Mamdani has said in the past that he would arrest Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu using the International Criminal Court warrant should Netanyahu ever visit New York City.
As with any American President, they age about 10-15 years after serving their time in office. It comes with the stress of doing their job. After the Monica Lewinski debacle, President Bill Clinton's hair turned completely white!
The Jews are watching Mamdani's every move. He claims Islam as his faith and, although it is forbidden for us to play the kuffar's games, I hope his faith helps him steer clear of any traps set for him.

One Officer Convicted in Inmate's Death
Although a video showed 10 corrections officers involved in the beating that led to the death of a cuffed Robert Brooks, only 1 was convicted of murder. There were two officers acquitted, while 6 pleaded guilty and 1 awaits trial.
Many people, including Robert Ricks, Brooks' father, have encouraged New York Governor Kathy Hochul to reform the prison system. They are pushing for her to sign the Omnibus Prison Reform Bill. Several other bills are being considered in an effort to deter prison violence and hold corrections officers responsible for their criminal acts.
Claiming the prison system needs to be reformed indicates that, at one time, it was a moral system that became corrupt. However, that is not the case. The American prison system has always been brutal. We hear about the unfortunate circumstances of our political prisoners and the abuse they have been subjected to during their incarceration on trumped-up charges. The fact that political prisoners exist is a clear indication of the unjust nature of the American justice system.
Thomas Gant, a Center for Community Alternatives community organizer, said that the issue with state violence is that they keep getting "covered with band-aids rather than long-term solutions." Perhaps the reason is that these advocates continue to navigate the same unjust system in pursuit of justice. Speaking to politicians and waiting for their vote or signature takes away the people's power.
Labor unions became powerful because the organizers looked for ways to empower themselves and their members while enforcing labor-friendly laws and environments. They are another great example of activism based on self-empowerment.

*PROPHET* ﷺ *'I HEARD THE ECHO OF YOUR FOOTSTEPS IN PARADISE'*~{A SECRET BETWEEN ALLAH AND YOU!}~
Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) relates...
Prophet ﷺ said to Bilal (r.a.)...
'Tell me, Bilal of your most hopeful action since your
acceptance of Islam because
I have heard the echo of your footsteps in Paradise
in front of me'... {!}
Bilal (r.a.) replied...
'I do not consider any of my actions more hopeful
(of acceptance from Allah) other than that whenever I have
made my ablutions ('Wudu') during the day or night
each time I have offered by way of prayer
that which Allah has made easy for me..'
No one knew about this action except Bilal and Allah {Azza wa Jal}
Look how great Allah's reward was !
do any of us have an action that ONLY ALLAH {Azza wa Jal }
knows we are doing ?
This is what truly makes an action special ...!
when you are so sincere that you seek only the Pleasure of Allah...!
give away something you absolutely love, wake up at night to pray,
visit an Orphanage, give out some charity, really forgive someone who hurt you.
submit to Allah's Decree in something you don't like.
or like Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) pray two(2) ركعات 'Rakaʿāt'
each time you make 'Wudu' and keep it a secret between Allah and you !
Then, on the Day that you finally meet Him, you will have something special to
present to Him something you can be sure was sincerely for His Pleasure.
